I am Honoured to have received the 2nd Prize at @NottmTrentUni 2025 STAR (Science & Tech Annual Research) Conference! Special thanks to my supervisors @con_meehan @blackpassiflora and Collaborators @Dan_Whiley1 @KateCox for their invaluable support. @AROM_NTU
Great to hear from @Dan_Whiley1 (Nottingham Trent University) on Helicobacter suis in UK farmed pigs 🐖 and retail meat products 🥓 We are glad this session was after lunch! #MicrobialGenomics #Microbio25
Congratulations to PhD students Rachel and Lottie, and MRes student Martyna on their publication with Gareth McVicker! @ntu_research @NTUSciTech microbiologyresearch.org/content/journa…
Congratulations to @con_meehan and colleagues on their new publication showing some M. tuberculosis lineages may be less transmissible because of their longer initial non-infectious 'latent' periods. @ntu_research @NTUSciTech sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
I’m excited to announce my new position as Editor (Mentee) for #AccessMicrobiology which is part of the @MicrobioSoc journal portfolio. Happy to receive advice from any current or former Editors to help me succeed in this role (cross posting from bsky)
Join us for our Publishing Fundamentals webinar, dedicated to the publishing process! Hosted by #MGen Editor @con_meehan & a Microbiology Society Publishing Editor, this event will take place on 4 March and is free for members to attend. Register here: buff.ly/3CPZCAR
Fantastic sessions at Clifton Library today for @NottsFOSAC 🥳Our departments of @NTUEng and @NTUBIOSCIENCES along with PhD students ran fun experiments, including extracting DNA from strawberries, explaining how the brain works and why some animals can see in the dark! 👀
We have a number of PhD studentships available within @AROM_NTU. Health inequalities which impact the treatment of urinary tract infections ntu.ac.uk/study-and-cour… with @dralhubb.
Just under a month left to apply for NTU PhD Studentships (deadline Feb 14th). Anyone interested in #AMR there's a project with my group to study the use of short interfering RNAs to reduce antimicrobial resistance in pathogenic bacterial species. tinyurl.com/56ym38a9
It's never too late to celebrate😃! Glad to share that I won the Second Best Poster Prize at the East Midlands AMR Network Research Conference! Grateful to my supervisory team @con_meehan @blackpassiflora @Dan_Whiley1 for their invaluable support! 💫
Very excited about this project! Interested potential candidates very welcome to contact me informally to find out more before applying

Great to kick off #WAAW with a huge injection of enthusiasm from students who entered our @NTU_MAK annual competition, producing engaging videos and comic strips to help raise awareness of AMR. Congratulations to the winners! All available at jodywinter.wixsite.com/waaw/waaw-2024 #cwpams #amr
Congratulations to Stephen Thompson (PhD), @hormoyhemmy (PhD), Lesley Hoyles and @WinterJody on their preprint combining transcriptomic (RNAseq) and phenotypic work to show the effects of menadione on Helicobacter pylori.
Menadione reduces the expression of virulence- and colonisation-associated genes in Helicobacter pylori biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_micrbio
New preprint out from @SamJTDMicro (PhD), @SaraGarnettx (MRes), @fiona_newberry (post-doc), @dp_negus and Lesley Hoyles. COVID lockdown meant Sam needed to change the focus of his PhD for a while. This is the result. Isolated phages and MAGs --> 2x number of known weberviruses.
Weberviruses are gut-associated phages that infect Klebsiella spp. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_micrbio
Our latest paper on mmpR5 frameshifts mutations is out! Our modelling suggests that this regressor protein can still form its structure using alternative reading frames, which is important when predicting bedaquiline resistance in Mtb. journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.11…
The NTU World AMR Awareness Week (18-24 Nov 2024) student competition has been launched by @WinterJody. Students around the world: submit a short video or comic strip suitable for a broad audience, to help us raise awareness of AMR. Deadline 10 Nov (midnight GMT).
Congratulations to @SouravKumarAMR on the publication of his review on Bdellovibrio with @dp_negus! @NTUSciTech @NTUBIOSCIENCES @ntu_research
Very pleased to announce that our review (@SouravKumarAMR ) on how Gram-negative bacteria escape predation by Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus is now published in @npjAMR check it out if you're interested in predatory bacteria! nature.com/articles/s4425…
